A method of fabricating an STI, comprising the following steps. A silicon structure having a pad oxide layer formed thereover is provided. An undoped poly buffer layer is formed over the pad oxide layer. A hard mask layer is formed over the undoped poly buffer layer. The hard mask layer, the undoped poly buffer layer and the pad oxide layer are patterned to form an opening exposing a portion of the silicon structure within an active area. The opening having exposed side walls. Inorganic spacers are formed over the exposed side walls. Using the patterned hard mask layer and the spacers as hard masks, the silicon structure is etched to form an STI opening within the active area. The inorganic spacers are removed exposing the upper corners of the STI opening. Using an oxidation process, a liner oxide layer is formed within the STI opening, over the upper corners of the STI opening and at least the patterned undoped poly buffer layer exposed by the removal of the inorganic spacers. An STI oxide layer is formed over the patterned hard mask layer, filling the liner oxide layer lined STI opening. The STI oxide layer is planarized and the patterned hard mask, the patterned undoped poly buffer layer and the patterned pad oxide layer are removed to fabricate the STI having rounded corners and without substantial divots.

A process for fabricating an alternate fin type capacitor structure, used to increase capacitor surface area has been developed. The process features the formation of fin shaped, storage node structures, located in fin type capacitor openings, which are in turn defined in a group of composite insulator layers. A first fin type capacitor opening is formed by selectively creating lateral recesses in first type insulator layers, exposed in a first capacitor opening in the composite insulator layers, while an adjacent, second fin type capacitor opening is formed by selectively creating lateral recesses in second type insulator components, exposed in a second capacitor opening located in the same composite insulator layers. Portions of the lateral recesses in the first and second fin type capacitor openings overlay, allowing intertwined or alternate, storage node structures to be realized, thus reducing the space needed for the capacitor structure. The horizontal features of the fin shaped storage node structure, located in the lateral recesses, result in increased capacitor surface area when compared to counterparts fabricated without the lateral recess component.

A novel SOC structure and method of making the same are provided. An SOC comprises a logic region, an SRRM and a DRAM region. The storage capacitor in a DRAM cell is formed in the first dielectric layer in an MIM (metal-insulator-metal) configuration, having a large vertical surface area. A butted contact, formed in said first dielectric layer, comprises a bottom portion abutting a first and second conductive region in an SRAM cell, and a vertically aligned top portion coupled to a first metal layer. The top portion has a substantially larger depth than that of the bottom portion, while substantially smaller in size. Forming this SOC structure does not require adding complex, error-prone additional processing steps on an existing CMOS manufacturing process, thus having little impact on the overall SOC product yield.
